A Good Day... So Far (cross your fingers please!)

I didn't blog last night. I had another horrible stressful day. Another day sitting at my mothers when I can't stand her at the moment. Another day of car stress and people pissing me off. Another day of waisting my time and getting NOTHING done with the car.
I figured you've been hearing me whine enough lately lol. We all have problems, and I know mine aren't the end of the world, and I'm going to try and just be positive. :)

Last night when I got home, everything was better of course. But still stressed and exhausted. My son was in bed at 9:30, I went out and got the last of the items he needed for school work, all was ready for this morning :) I also was in bed by midnight, awesome!

What I ate yesterday:
Breakfast: Coffee and an oatmeal cream pie
Lunch: 1 left over piece of lasagna, 1/2 cup ff skim milk
Dinner: 2 servings broccoli chicken Alfredo over penne noodles, 1 piece of garlic cheese toast, 1 cup ff skim milk
Total Water: 28 oz
We had Ray's mom over for dinner. It was nice :) His niece too. Talking and visiting and I got up and got another helping without even thinking! If I would have stuck to my new rule, and waited 10 minutes before getting a second helping- I KNOW I wouldn't have got it. I have to make sure to do that all the time. I'm sure it will be habit before to long :)

Treadmill 15 minutes/ .56 mile
Total days in a row on the treadmill: 28

This morning he started MIDDLE SCHOOL... how did he get so old???? I just can't believe it. I hope he had a good time!!! I can't wait for him to get home :)
After I dropped him off at school, we brought the car in. It's still at the shop, getting a new alternator. I'm just so glad it's getting done that I don't care they said it would be ready a hour and a half ago. I just want it done, and done right. It's costing us about $75 more than it would have if Step Dad would have done it, but having it done right and not waiting 2 more weeks for it is worth it to me. Now we need one more thing, the sway bar links. Step Dad says he can do it, but I know that means waiting till when ever he feels like it- when he's not busy doing nothing... but what can ya do. I can't afford to have that done right now, so I'll be waiting either way. Just wish me luck that nothing else goes wrong!!!!!

I think I have been doing a good job with my food today :) We were so busy that I will be doing the treadmill tonight as usual, but now that I will be getting up so early I really want to start doing it the morning.

I feel so much better today, and I think the weather has helped that too. It is so beautiful today! It's about 74, sunny and windy. A little to windy, but that makes it feel cooler... I really wish we had more days like this! Like EVERY day would be good hehe :)
I think we'll have to switch it up a bit, and I will post during the morning/afternoon about the day before. Instead of posting at night. I need to start going to bed at a decent hour now :) I think it will work out well. So see you tomorrow!!! I hope everyone had a great day, and holiday weekend. I hope all your kids enjoyed their first day of school, if they have started :)

My son will be home in about 20 minutes. I hope he liked it!!!! I hope the transition wasn't to hard... I hope he had a good day!!!
